Based on National Forest Policy, 1952, how much percent area under forest should be maintained in hills ?

  • A.30
  • B.20
  • C.60
  • D.45

Answer: C

The 1952 policy prescribed 60% forest cover in the hills.

The National Forest Policy of 1952 set a national goal of one-third of the land area under forest, to be achieved by keeping 60% of the area under forest in the hills and mountainous regions (to protect against erosion and landslides) and 20% in the plains. The 1988 policy repeated the two-thirds target for hills.

20% is the figure for the plains, and 30% and 45% are not targets set by the policy.
